To be quite honest, John Lennon had questionable politics. There was a flip side. He was all peace and love, but he was a very violent character.

I've grown to love California: It's the dream of every English musician to come here and work in the sunshine. To walk up Sunset Boulevard, knowing you're going to make music - that's it.
Noel Gallagher
Is it any wonder why Princes & Kings, Are clowns that caper in their sawdust rings, When ordinary people who are like you and me, Are the builders of their destiny...
Noel Gallagher
I don't have the genetic make-up of a frontman, but I'm learning how to do it.
Noel Gallagher
I've always been into guitars. We want to put keyboards on, but keyboard players don't look cool onstage, they just keep their heads down. There has never been a cool keyboard player, apart from Elton John.
Noel Gallagher
I'm against people downloading music.

I remember the 70s constantly being winter in Manchester and the Irish community in Manchester closing ranks because of the IRA bombings in Birmingham and Manchester, and you know the bin-workers' strike, all wrapped up in it... They were violent times. Violence at home and violence at football matches.
Noel Gallagher
The thing about bands is everybody wants to be the next Oasis, and that doesn't mean slogging it out around the toilet [gigs], it means, Give me the check, I need to go to the Levis shop and I need a 1960s Gibson.
Noel Gallagher
What's problematic about playing stadiums and driving around in private jets and drinking champagne at 8 o'clock in the morning? What's wrong with that? I haven't got a problem with that. I can't fathom why people would.
Noel Gallagher
I go into Daunt Books in Marylebone every couple of weeks. My wife Sara demolishes books, but I only buy stuff occasionally. I like boys' things, spies and the Cold War.
Noel Gallagher
The thing about Manchester is...it all comes from here
Noel Gallagher
I do all the work so it's only right that I should get the most money. Plus I am the most handsome.
Noel Gallagher
I know there's bands that might write something that sounds like The Smiths, and they'll go, 'Oh, it sounds like The Smiths, we've got to make it sound not like The Smiths.'
Noel Gallagher
I first came to London when I was 22 and working as a roadie. Having watched the 'News At Ten' all my life, I thought Big Ben was going to be massive, but I was underwhelmed.
Noel Gallagher
There are periods where you think, What am I doing? or What am I doing it for? that's a more scary question. I've made s---loads of money, I've left my mark in music, why am I still doing this?, and it takes a while to answer that question.
Noel Gallagher
All your dreams are made / When you're chained to the mirror and the razor blade
Noel Gallagher
Every album I've ever been involved in, on the day that it came out I believed in it.
Noel Gallagher
Do you ever look at the sky and think, I'm glad I'm alive? After I heard System of a Down, I thought, I'm actually alive to hear the shittiest band of all time. Which is quite something when you think about it. Of all the bands that have gone before and all the bands that'll be in the future, I was around when the worst was around.
Noel Gallagher
You've got to be strong enough for love. It's very easy to be cool and cynical. It's very difficult to just let yourself go and be in love. You've got to be strong enough for that.
Noel Gallagher
As soon as people realize that the majority of people in this country take drugs then the better off we'll all be. It's not like a scandalous sensation or anything like that... drugs is like getting up and having a cup of tea in the morning.
Noel Gallagher
I don't fall into the category of tortured artist. But it's not made me more or less anything.
Noel Gallagher
